Chapter 56: Suffering
Not everyone can spend the Christmas holidays leisurely, at least, the current presidents of La Liga and even La Liga have to gather in Madrid for one thing.
It has been reported that the Spanish tax department plans to implement a new personal income tax law, and the Spanish government will increase the personal income tax rate from 24% to 43% for expatriates with an annual income of more than 600,000 euros, that is, to return to the rate before the implementation of the "Beckham Act".
The so-called "Beckham Act" means that eligible foreign players only need to pay 24% personal income tax, while domestic players can pay up to 43% of the tax rate. It is said that this is a tax rate clause set by Florentino to lobby the Spanish prime minister at the time to bring in Beckham, of course, no one knows whether this statement is true, but it is a fact that Beckham joined Real Madrid and became the first star to benefit from this new tax law. The implementation of the "Beckham Act" has undoubtedly attracted more foreign talents to Spanish clubs, and at the same time, it has also made the two giants of La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona, gain some advantages in attracting top stars.
But now, the Spanish government is ready to repeal this clause, which will undoubtedly affect the interests of Spanish clubs, because it means that they will have to pay more taxes than before when they bring in foreign stars in the future, with the same annual salary.
Therefore, when the news was confirmed, it immediately caused an uproar in Spanish football.
It is in this context that Sans Jr. came to the place he had just visited once in the summer, the football city of Las Rozas in Madrid.
When little Sans appeared, his old acquaintance Arango was the first to take the initiative to come over to greet him. A few months ago, the president of Sporting Gijón witnessed Karcés' taunts of Sans, intentionally or unintentionally, and this time, he is clearly still happy to see the scene repeated, whether it is a change of person or not.
In fact, in the football faction of La Liga, Sporting Gijón and Malaga are not on the same front.
Like other major European leagues, La Liga naturally has its factional division, from the competitive level, the most simple and clear division is Real Madrid and Barcelona, there is a more interesting phenomenon, that is, the club name with "Royal", most of them are pro-Real Madrid, and with "Athletic", most of them are more pro-Barcelona. So, Real Sociedad, Real Betis...... They are basically the younger brothers of Real Madrid, and such as Athletic Bilbao and even Atletico Madrid, are undoubtedly more inclined to Barcelona. Of course, this is not absolute, because not all teams have "royal" or "athletic", at this time, ethnicity has become a decisive factor, Spain is a multi-ethnic country, and ethnic contradictions have always affected all areas of the country, including football. Malaga in the south and Sporting Gijón in the north are naturally not on the same side in terms of factions.
Sans couldn't hide the smile on his face, and he didn't want to hide it, Malaga is currently second in the league, and he is the president of Malaga.
Arango was only the first to take the initiative to greet him, followed by Villarreal's president, Rog, and Sevilla's president, Del Nido...... Between words, Mo is not to congratulate Malaga on the current table xiàn to the little Sans.
Xiao Sans is no longer the "player president" of a few years ago, he naturally knows that these people in front of him are not really congratulating themselves, let alone really out of respect for themselves, because he noticed a difference, most of the people who greeted him belonged to the president of the "La Liga middle class" club, although these teams cannot be compared with Real Madrid and Barcelona, but most of them have no relegation pressure, and on the contrary, several other club presidents who have already arrived at this time choose to stand by coldly, Their teams are mostly the ones with poor results at the moment......
Seeing this, it is not difficult to guess the reason why Rogge and others sent a goodwill signal to him, it is nothing more than that he has taken a fancy to the players in Malaga.
However, even if he knows the reason, Xiao Sans is still very happy, at this time, he is like a parent of a child with excellent academic performance to attend the parent-teacher conference, his identity may not be superior, but the pride in his heart is real.
The only thing that surprised Xiao Sans was that one person actually took the initiative to greet him.
This person is Little Hill.
It is not surprising that Junior Sans has made Atletico the younger Hill representative.
Cerezo is the chairman, and Hill Jr. is the general manager. It stands to reason that since it is the chairman's summit, it should be Cerezo who represents Atletico Madrid to attend the summit today, but when it comes to the issue of this kind of interest, as the first shareholder of Atletico Madrid, Little Hill naturally has more reason to appear here.
"Hello, Fernando." Little Hill, who took the initiative to step forward, seemed to want to show his demeanor, but calling Little Sans by his name instantly made Little Sans feel his condescension.
"Hello, Mr. Hill." Little Sans still smiled, but the title distanced himself from Little Hill.
Sanz and Hill, two surnames, are no longer the protagonists in Spanish football today, but history is history. Old Sans and Old Hill, who were once the president of Real Madrid and the chairman of Atletico Madrid, are not exaggerations when they are in power, and now one of them has died and one is dormant, but their respective sons have inherited their father's business, but now Little Hill is still in Atletico Madrid, although he has retreated into the background, and Little Sans is holding another skinny "horse" in his hand. The two originally said that it was not strange that they did not get along with each other, but now they have a subtle intersection because of "Lin Sen".
"You don't have to be so outside, just call me Miguel." Little Hill didn't seem to notice Little Sans's overtones, and he said as usual, "Malaga has a good performance this year, and I believe we still have many opportunities to work together." ”
"Opportunity for collaboration?" Little Sans asked with a smile.
"Of course. Don't you think we're already working together? Little Ciel's smile suddenly became a little playful.
So, little Sans knew what the other party was talking about. At the moment, there are only two names that can still link Malaga and Atletico Madrid, one is Linson and the other is Koke. Lin Sen is obviously not a name that Hill Jr. is willing to mention, so naturally he can only say Cork.
Obviously, in Hill Jr.'s view, Koke is already a player for Atletico Madrid, while Malaga is just helping Atletico improve their leveling.
"In that case, I'm looking forward to working together in the future." Little Sans said calmly.
"I'm looking forward to it, too." Little Ciel nodded, "Then I'll go first." ”
Looking at Xiao Hill's leisurely back, Xiao Sans smiled, in fact, just now, Xiao Sans almost wanted to thank Xiao Hill for Lin Sen's matter, and he dared to guarantee that if he said it, Xiao Hill would never be as chic as he looked now, but when the words came to his mouth, he closed his mouth again.
Suffer any loss, and do not suffer a verbal loss.
This is the style of the Hill family, but not the style of the Sans family. Little Hill is at least right in one sentence, there are still many opportunities for the two sides to cooperate in the future.
……
Karsese, who had just arrived at the venue, was originally in a bad mood, but he didn't expect to see a good show as soon as he came in. Little Tance and Little Hill didn't talk for a long time, and the tone and content didn't seem to be angry, but those who knew the inside story knew that the brief scene just now was far less calm than it seemed.
Sans Jr.'s forbearance surprised Karcés a little, is this still the president of Malaga who openly condemned the opponent because of a referee problem last season?
It's hard to see a team's good results but also improve people's patience...... Karseth muttered in his heart, but he had already made up his mind to admit it, who would let himself be cheap? But then again, God knows what the Chinese coach is capable of? It is said that Lin didn't even include Malaga in the scope of job hunting at that time, but he was pushed out by himself when he was sent to the door? No, retribution is coming.
Thinking of this, Calces sighed in his heart except for sighing.
"Francisco." Seeing Karses coming over, the corners of Xiao Sans's mouth curled slightly, and he punned on the words, "You're late." ”
"It's not too late. Isn't it still the beginning? Carces naturally understood that Little Sans had something to say, but he knew that Little Sans was afraid that there was still a little ember in his heart at this time.
So he then laughed at himself: "Besides, what if it's early, I'm early, didn't I still cheapen you." ”
I didn't expect that Calces, who was still arrogant last time, would admit that he was so happy to admit that he was gone this time, and at the same time, Xiao Sans was a little stunned, and at the same time, he couldn't help but curse the old fox in his heart.
If it weren't for Little Hill's episode, the fat man in front of him would have been the object he wanted to "talk to" the most, but now Calces lowered his posture to say this, if Little Thance continued to dwell on this issue, it would undoubtedly seem that he had no grace.
"Let's do it together." Karsese, who had easily erased the "mistakes" of a few months ago, chuckled and said, "Let's see what the big guys will come up with today." ”
The big guy in Carcasses's mouth naturally refers to the presidents of several major teams in La Liga, especially the presidents of the two giants Real Madrid and Barcelona.
This has become a practice in La Liga, once it comes to the issue of interests, most of them are led by the two giants, either openly or secretly, as for the others, today is just the role of accompanying the prince to study. The only agenda item of today's summit is how to deal with the adjustment of the tax rate, but in fact, whether the tax rate is adjusted or not will not have much impact on a small club like Malaga, and the adjustment point is set at 600,000, and now there are only a few people in the Malaga team with an annual salary of 600,000?
The biggest impact is still the more traditional strong teams in La Liga.
Junior Sans suddenly remembered the current disgruntled TV share allocation for most La Liga teams, and felt more and more sad about the small clubs in La Liga, because there is not much that small clubs can actually do, whether it is advantageous or unfavorable.
Shaking his head slightly, Little Sans and Calces walked into the venue side by side.
